Dublin-based revenue operations start-up Tacenda is targeting €600,000 in new investment to accelerate growth.
Tacenda has raised over €300,000 within a week of launching its crowdfunding campaign on the Spark CrowdFunding platform.
Revenue Operations aims to maximise an organisation s revenue potential by ensuring all the relevant departments are perfectly aligned with each other.
Telecoms, technology and high growth companies can lose up to 30% of their annual revenues by failing to align the various departments which are responsible for delivering and retaining revenues.
According to Tacenda, the Sales Department is often not aligned with the Finance Department, or the Marketing Department is not aligned with the Customer Services Department. This can result in operational inefficiencies.

Akkure Genomics will use its latest funding round to support an expansion of its clinical trials platform.
Akkure Genomics launched a crowdfunding campaign on Spark Crowdfunding in late January. The plan was to run a 35-day campaign to reach a €500,000 target. Within one week, the company had passed €1m in crowdfunding.
The campaign has now closed with €1.2m raised by more than 300 investors. The scaling digital health company will use this funding to accelerate the roll-out of its clinical trials platform. It is targeting a US launch in the next 12 to 18 months, which this funding will support.
